| - Hockey Club Lev Praha (stylized as HC LEV Praha) is a professional ice hockey team located in Prague, Czech Republic, which made their first Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) season in 2012–13. For legal and financial purposes, the club claims to be a different organization from HC Lev Poprad, which played in the KHL during the previous season.
- In their first two seasons played, Lev has made the Gagarin Cup playoffs both times. In 2012-13, they finished 7th in the Western Conference and were swept in four straight games by HC CSKA Moscow in the first round. In 2013-14, they finished 3rd in the west, then beat KHL Medvescak Zagreb, HC Donbass and Lokomotiv Yaroslavl to become Western Conference Champions. In the Gagarin Cup Finals, they faced Metallurg Magnitogorsk. The series went to a seventh and decisive game before Metallurg prevailed on home ice 7-4. Lev home attendance in the 2012-13 regular season was an average of 7,161 spectators, making it the highest-attended Prague hockey club and the sixth highest in the KHL. Lev holds the record for the five largest home crowds in KHL history, with a record of 17,073 attending game four of the Gagarin Cup Finals at O2 Arena on April 24, 2014. However, after two seasons, because of financial problems caused by the withdrawing of two major sponsors, Lev is not playing in the 2014–15 KHL season. According to shareholders, this decision does not rule out the possibility of the KHL returning to Prague in the future. They are not considering moving the team to another city or another league; the KHL in Prague remains their priority.
